Version 15.4 continues to push The Battle Cats further into an era where a handful of Uber and Legend Rare units can completely change how you approach difficult stages. While almost every Uber has some kind of niche, the gap between the strongest and weakest units has never been more noticeable. Some units dominate nearly every stage they’re deployed in, while others are mostly reserved for collectors or specific challenge maps.
This tier list is based on overall performance, consistency, versatility, late-game value, and usefulness across Stories of Legend, Uncanny Legends, Zero Legends, Advent Stages, and endgame content. Rather than focusing on a single niche, the rankings reflect how valuable a unit is to the average player over the long term.

If you’re rerolling, spending Rare Tickets, or deciding which units deserve your Catseyes and NP, prioritize the units found in SSS, SS, and SS+ first. Squire Luno, Lone Moon Lunos, Dark Kasli, Dark Phono, Phonoa, Izanagi, Greater Balrog, Lunacia, and Kasa Jizo remain some of the most impactful units available in Version 15.4.
That said, The Battle Cats is a game filled with specialized stages, so even units in lower tiers can occasionally outperform top-tier Ubers when the situation favors their unique abilities. The strongest roster is always one that gives you answers to as many enemy types and stage mechanics as possible.
